Publications of the United States National Museum

The scientific publications of the United States National Museum include two
series, Proceedings of the United States National Museum and United States National
Museum Bulletin.

In these series are published original articles and monographs dealing with
the collections and work of the Museum and setting forth newly acquired facts
in the field of anthropology, biology, geology, history, and technology. Copies
of each publication are distributed to libraries and scientific organizations and
to specialists and others interested in the various subjects.

The Proceedings, begun in 1878, are intended for the publication, in separate
form, of shorter papers. These are gathered in volumes, octavo in size, with
the publication date of each paper recorded in the table of contents of the volume.

In the Bulletin series, the first of which was issued in 1875, appear longer,
separate publications consisting of monographs (occasionally in several parts)
and volumes in which are collected works on related subjects. Bulletins are
either octavo or quarto in size, depending on the needs of the presentation.
Since 1902, papers relating to the botanical collections of the Museum have been
published in the Bulletin series under the heading Contibutions from the United
States National Herbarium.

This work forms number 280 of the Bulletin series.

Introduction

This study began as a revision of the North American Anerastiinae,
largely in the sense of the McDunnough (1939) checklist. In keeping
with the original goals of the investigation, this paper treats all species
formerly placed under that subfamily name, although Anerastia and
several other genera are herein transferred to the Phycitinae, and
Peoria is taken as the nominal genus of the subfamily. The transferred
genera have not previously been treated in detail and so are discussed
in this paper. The following introductory sections deal with the litera-
ture and history of the classification of all the genera formerly placed
in the Anerastiinae.

The species of moths which previously constituted the subfamily
Anerastiinae are a mixture of various pyralid elements. Members of
this worldwide group are generally uncommon, rather inconspicuous
insects of little or no economic importance, and perhaps largely for
these reasons have received relatively little attention from taxonomists.

Much of the work which has been done on the North American
Anerastiinae appeared during the last 15 years of the 19th century
and is superficial by current standards. The only world monograph of
the group is that of Ragonot (1901). Because existing works on the
anerastiines have not been based on the detailed examination of
species which is so necessary to a natural taxonomic system, a number
of areas remain as major problems.

Identification of species has been difficult, even for specialists, be-
cause the descriptions and illustrations are inadequate. Most of the
original descriptions occupy but a few lines of text and are almost
useless for identifying the species. Illustrations of the adults are nearly
absent from the literature with the exception of the Ragonot revision,
a rare publication not easily available to most workers. The genitalia,
one of the most taxonomically useful structures, are nowhere illus-
trated for North American species and are described in only a few
instances. In addition most past studies were made from only one or a
few specimens so that no account of individual and geographic varia-
tion was possible. Thus, reliable identifications can be made only by
comparison with the type specimens. This is difficult because the
types are scattered in various museums throughout the United States
and Europe.

Placement of species into genera has been on the basis of usually
one or a few superficial characters of wings, antennae, and palpi,

1

a U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM BULLETIN 280

without emphasis on the sum of these characters and without examina-
tion of the genitalia. As a result most species have been misplaced,
often associated in Old World genera to which they have no close
affinities.

The Anerastiinae and Phycitinae have long been considered closely
related within the Pyralidae and were often collectively recognized as
the family Phycitidae. The two groups show close similarity in wing
venation, notably the loss of vein R; in both groups. They also have
similar palpi and the frenulum reduced to a single bristle in the females.

Separation of the Anerastiinae from the Phycitinae has been made
on the basis of a single reduction character, loss or extreme reduction
of the tongue, hence the supposed monophyletic nature of the group
has been highly questionable. The results of the present investigation
indicate that in North America eight genera properly belong with the
phycitines and seven genera, forming a natural group, are quite dis-
tinctly separate from the Phycitinae. The latter of these two groups
has been given subfamily status as the Peoriinae, a subfamily name
proposed by Hulst.

The present study is preliminary; essentially all that is known of
the group is based on studies of the adults; the immature stages and
the biology of the living insects are almost wholly unknown. Food
plant records are available for only two species of peoriines, both grass
feeders. Peoria bipartitella is reported to feed on Panicum lanuginosum,
and Peoria tetradella on Elymus canadensis as a borer in the stem. The
life history of Anerastia lotella, a Holarctic species, is well described in
the literature, notably by Buckler (1901). The species feeds on a
number of grasses including Ammophila arenaria, Festuca ovina, Secale
cereale, and Azra species. It is hoped that this paper will encourage
taxonomic and biological studies on the Peoriinae throughout their
worldwide range.

TECHNIQUES.—Preparatory to examining the genitalia the abdomen
was broken away from the thorax and macerated in cold 10 percent
potassium hydroxide (KOH) solution for from 4 to 8 hours, then
dissected in 50 percent alcohol. The abdomen was carefully torn open
with jewelers’ forceps along the entire right pleural area, enabling the
cuticle to be mounted flat with the outer surface upward. The genitalia
were separated by carefully tearing along the membrane between
segments eight and nine. After the removal of loose scales and KOH,
the male genitalia were usually stained with mercurochrome (0.3
percent aqueous solution), or occasionally with chlorazol black or
acid fuchsin to improve rendition of various structures. The aedeagus
was removed, and the valves were spread and held open by a small
rectangular section of microscope slide placed over the genitalia. The
genitalia were held in this position in 95 percent alcohol until hardened,
then transferred successively to clove oil and xylene for about 15
minutes each, prior to mounting in Canada balsam on a microscope
slide.

Female genitalia were put through the same series of chemicals as
those of the males, but were usually stained with chlorazol black or
mercurochrome.

In order to allow observation from any desired angle the genitalia
of at least one specimen of each sex of each species were transferred
from xylene into small (5 x 10 mm) genitalia vials, along with a drop
of Cargille’s type A microscope immersion oil; the males were left
unspread. These specimens were eventually washed in xylene and
mounted in balsam; before mounting they proved very useful in
preparing descriptions because it was possible to study the relation-
ships of the various structures.

Attempts to spread the male genitalia of the Peoriinae in the
manner described above caused considerable distortion; thus the
method had to be modified. If one will visualize the external male
genitalia as the aedeagus and a surrounding cylinder, and then the
cylinder as severed lengthwise, the genitalia can be ‘‘unrolled” and

4 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM BULLETIN 280

flattened. In practice this was achieved by carefully separating the
right valve from the vinculum and tearing the diaphragma so that
the juxta remains adjacent to the right valve. The method was highly
satisfactory as all the genitalic structures then lay flat in one plane.
The genitalia were held flat, run through the alcohol, clove oil, xylene
series, and mounted as explained above. Illustrations of the peoriine
species and several other species were made with the male genitalia
prepared in this manner.

Trrms.—The Comstock-Needham system has been used in naming
the wing veins (fig. 50). I have followed Kornerup and Wanscher
(1962) for color terminology, viewing both the color plates and the
specimen by incandescent illumination. Physiographic distribution
terminology follows Lobeck (1948). Unless otherwise indicated, the
phrase “North America” is taken to mean America north of Mexico.

Review of the Literature

The genus Anerastia Hiibner [1826] originally comprised four
species; three of these were transferred to Hypochalcia Hiibner by
Zeller (1848), and the one remaining species, lotella Hiibner [1810-
1813], was assumed to be the type of the genus although it was not
explicitly designated as such until 1886 by Moore. In the original
publication of lotella, Hiibner gives only a watercolor figure, no
description. Genitalia of both sexes were figured and described briefly
by Pierce (1938).

Walker (1866) originally described approximella, the same species
later being named haematica by Zeller (1872), and roseatella by
Packard (1873). Zeller’s paper included descriptions of three other
new species of North American Anerastiinae.

In 1886 Ragonot established the family Phycitidae, based on
Phycita Curtis, and divided it into the subfamilies Phycitinae and
Anerastiinae based upon the ‘‘absence, or nearly so, of the tongue”
in the latter group. He states his intention to prepare a monograph
of the Phycitidae and Galleridae of the world and gives a review of
previous works on these insects.

The publication of Hulst’s ‘Descriptions of New Pyralidae” (1886)
prompted Ragonot to publish new species of his own in advance of
the projected monograph. The appearance of the Hulst papers at
this time was in some respects unfortunate, for in the next several
years both men published many new specific and generic names
without seeing each other’s types, thereby creating many synonyms.
During 1887-89 Ragonot published 16 species and 15 genera, and
Hulst published 7 species and 4 genera listed as new for the North
American Anerastiinae.

6 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM BULLETIN 280

Grote (1888) regarded “. .. the Phycidae or Phyciinae as a
sub-family of the Pyralidae; the M. Ragonot’s Anerastinae [sic] as
merely a tribal division of the sub-family.”

The first paper summarizing knowledge of the Anerastiinae was
Hulst’s (1890) ‘Revision of American Phycitidae.”” Therein he
divided the family into the subfamilies Phycitinae and Peoriinae, the
latter group largely corresponding to Ragonot’s Anerastiinae, but
excluding Anerastia and two other genera. The division was rather
auspiciously made on the basis of the male genitalia, but unfortunately
his assignment of genera into the two groups suggests that he neglected
careful examination of these structures for most species. Indeed,
genitalia are discussed for only 4 of the 19 peoriine genera included
in the paper. The revision treats 30 species in 19 genera of Peoriinae,
with 7 of the species and 4 of the genera being described as new.

The great world monograph of Ragonot (1901) was completed by
Sir George F. Hampson after the author’s death in 1895 and contains
descriptions of 31 species and illustrations in color of 30 species
(lotella Hiibner not being illustrated) of North American Anerastiinae
placed in 17 genera. Three species and one genus were described as
new. A number of the specific names have since been synonymized,
and several of the genera have been found not to be North American.

Hampson’s (1918) classification of the subfamily termed the group
Hypsotropinae based on Hypsotropa Zeller. He considered dignella
Hiibner to be the type of Anerastia, but Ragonot (1901) had already
designated lotella Hiibner as such. His paper covers the entire group
and ascribes one new species to the North American fauna.

Sixteen new specific names have been added to the literature since
the publication of Ragenot’s monograph, these mostly in occasional
papers by Dyar (1904, 1904a, 1906, 1908, 1923), Barnes and McDun-
nough (1913), Hampson (1918, 1930), and Grossbeck (1917). The
most recent checklist for North America (McDunnough, 1939)
gives 23 genera and 51 species, plus 1 genus and 10 species as junior
synonyms. Heinrich’s ‘‘Revision of the New World Phycitinae’’
(1956) transfers a number of genera across the subfamily lines.

Classification

As has been indicated previously, available information on the
Anerastiinae is minimal, so that the present study is only a step
toward a more reliable taxonomic system such as exists for many
better known groups of insects. Nevertheless, morphological studies
of adult specimens indicate that radical changes in the classification
of the Anerastiinae are needed.

REVISION OF PEORIINAE AND ANERASTIINAE a

I have accepted the male genitalia as being the most reliable
morphological indicators of natural relationships, especially at the
generic level. They offer a relatively large number of stable characters.
Female genitalia are in many cases too similar to be of much value
in separating species, and even genera. Characters of wings, antennae,
and palpi previously used to define genera often exhibit more intra-
generic than intergeneric variation and consequently are by them-
selves extremely unreliable indicators of generic lines.

Numerous examples of wing venation variability could be given,
and the following will illustrate the lack of reliability of venational
characters: In the genus Peoria the presence or absence in the fore-
wing of vein M; does not correlate with any other morphological
feature investigated. This vein was present in about one-half of the
specimens of P. santaritella, and one specimen possessed M; only on
the right wing. Aberrations in the wing venation are very common
within the subfamily, and the usefulness of any particular venational
feature must be evaluated separately.

Orientation of the palpi may vary with the sex, and in living
specimens the position they assume may be different from that
found in dead specimens after desiccation. Unfortunately, most species
have been described from very small series of specimens, so the
variation has not always been apparent. Thus the use of this character
in assigning species to genera has proved to be extremely unreliable.

The definition of the Anerastiinae has not generally been regarded
as very satisfactory. Although most of the species have a distinctive
habitus, this and the reduced tongue are not, in the absence of other
substantial correlated characters, sufficient to define the group.
Heinrich (1956), following Ragonot’s division of the Phycitidae, felt
that ‘. . . in the main the subfamilies [Phycitinae and Anerastiinae]
themselves appear to be natural entities, although their definition
leaves much to be desired.”

On the basis of the genitalia, the North American Anerastiinae
divide into two distinctly separate groups. One of these groups is
composed of eight phycitine genera, including Anerastia, which seem
to be related to diverse areas of that subfamily, and the remaining
seven genera comprise a natural group, the Peoriinae.

The genitalia of both sexes in the peoriines differ distinctly from
those in the phycitines. Females all have the ovipositor greatly com-
pressed, probably as an adaptation for a particular mode of oviposi-
tion. In the males the uncus is so different from its usual appearance
in the phycitines as to be nearly unrecognizable in the North American
species. Indeed, the assumption that these terminal parts represent
uncus is based on an examination of several Old World peoriine

8 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM BULLETIN 280

genera in which the uncus is similar, in varying degrees, to that of
the phycitines.

A number of other features are generally, but not exclusively,
characteristic of the Peoriinae. In all species the males have two to
five (possibly more) basal antennal segments fused to some degree,
the exact number often varying within a species. Longitudinal wing
markings are more common than transverse ones, and the ocelli
are well developed in all the species examined.

Inasmuch as the present state of our knowledge is so unsatisfactory,
the author hopes to undertake studies of the group on a world basis
to better deal with the problem. The interpretation of just how
closely the Phycitinae and the Peoriinae are related will depend in
part on how homologies between the male genitalic structures of the
two groups are interpreted, and in part on the significance of the
compressed ovipositor. A better understanding of this problem will
require examination of the genitalic structures of all the species,
and perhaps studies of their embryology and soft-part anatomy as
well. Life history studies would be extremely valuable and should
help to elucidate the functional significance of the compressed
Ovipositor.

Key to Genera of Peoriinae Based Upon the Male Genitalia

Within the Peoriinae intrageneric variation of alar, palpal, and
antennal features seriously limits their usefulness in separating genera.
In the absence of other distinguishing features, keys to genera must
rely on characters of the male genitalia. Whenever slide preparation is
impractical, reasonably certain determinations can often be made by
comparing external features of the specimens to descriptions and
photographs of adults. Genitalia slides should be prepared if correct
identification is critical. It is suggested that the indicated figures be
consulted when using the keys.

Dracnosis.—Members of this rather variable genus may be recog-
nized by the characteristic uncus with its bandlike medial process and
paired spicate processes, bifurcate with each arm round, slender,
sharply pointed, and oriented at about 90 degrees to the other (fig. 51).

Derscription.—Labial palpi porrect (obliquely ascending in lutei-
costella); tongue rudimentary; antennae with base compressed, male
shaft with basal segments partly fused, female with shaft filiform,
finely ciliate.

Forewings with 10 or 11 veins; R, from cell well before upper outer
angle; R» from cell near base of or stalked with R344; Ray, always
stalked, from just before the angle; M, from the angle; M; stalked or
fused with M;; M; sometimes stalked with Cu,; Cu, at or near lower
outer angle of cell; Cuz from just before the angle. Hindwings with

outer angle of cell; Mz absent; M; stalked with Cu, for at least one-
third of its length, sometimes fused; Cu, from lower outer angle; Cuz
from just before the angle.

Male genitalia with uncus bearing bandlike medial process; spicate
processes each terminating in slender, sharply pointed ventrad and
caudad arms. Gnathos arms broad and flat. Vinculum well developed,
broadly rounded. Aedeagus somewhat flattened, three to four times as
long as broad; vesica, when armed, bearing one or two cornuti.

Female genitalia with posterior and anterior apophyses of about
equal length, well developed. Ductus bursae moderately short. Bursa
unarmed. Ductus seminalis from posterior end of bursa, broadened at
base.

Discussion.—The genus includes 13 known species and is the
largest in the American fauna of the subfamily. Affinities vary within
the genus, and the species have been grouped to show relationships
in so far as this is possible with a linear arrangement.

There is enough variation of characters within many of the species
to render difficult the construction and use of keys. To aid in the identi-
fication of specimens, a chart summarizing the characters found to be
of greatest value in separating species is included in addition to the
key.

In a few cases the male genitalia are quite distinctive of the species,
but for the most part the differences are rather subtle. The form of
the gnathos, number of cornuti in the vesica, and shape of the valvae
(not summarized in table, see figures) are the most useful characters
of the male genitalia.

Navasota hebetella may belong to Peoria and has been included in
the key (see Unplaced Genera and Species, p. 87).

In accordance with the recommendation of the Code (Article 24),
I have chosen the name Peoria for this genus rather than the lesser
known Aurora which has page precedence.

Draanosis.—This species is distinguished from all other members
of the genus with similar venation by the combination of the forewing
being basally darker posterior to the cell and the absence of white
tracing on forewing vein A».

palpi with basal segments white, second and third segments clothed
with white-tipped brown scales dorsally and on outer sides, with light
brown to white scales ventrally and on inner sides; maxillary palpi
almost reaching frons; antennae brown, laminate in male; occiput
behind eye, patagia, and tegulae brown, vertex behind antennae and
dorsum of occiput light brown; legs with tarsi clothed with white-
tipped brown scales.

Forewings brown, darker posterior to cubitus, especially basal half;
all veins except anals variously traced with white; areas between
veins a mixture of white and brown scales; usually solid brown poste-
rior to cubitus, becoming lighter distally. Hindwings light brown,
slightly darker in apical region. Venation as in tetradella.

Male genitalia with gnathos bearing apical digitate projection.
Juxta V-shaped. Vinculum with anterior edge flattened and flanged.

Discusston.—The species shows close affinities to tetradella and
floridella, particularly to the latter.

20 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM BULLETIN 280

Wing maculation in opacella is rather variable, especially with
respect to the degree of white tracing on the veins. The variation is
apparent within local populations and does not appear to be geographic.

Peoria floridella, new species
Figures 8, 55, 74, 109

Draenosts.—The species is rather similar to opacella in most re-
spects, but is easily distinguished by the white trace on forewing vein
Ao.

Derscription.—Frons conical, scales solid light brown; labial palpi
with basal segments white, second segments reddish brown on outer
sides, third segments brown on outer sides, both white on inner sides;
maxillary palpi moderately small, not approaching frons; antennae
light brown, male laminate; occiput behind eye, patagia, and tegulae
light brown, vertex behind antennae brownish white; legs white,
tarsi light brown.

Forewings reddish orange anterior to cell; ground terra cotta;
costa and all other veins traced with white, trace of A, bordered with
dark brown, cubitus bordered posteriorly with dark brown line.
Hindwings light brown, darker toward apex. Venation as in fetradella.

Male genitalia with gnathos bearing apical digitate projection.
Juxta V-shaped. Valvae with costa sparsely setose, bearing poorly de-
veloped apical tooth; sacculus with numerous fine hairs. Aedeagus
with vesica bearing a single serrate cornutus.

Discusston.—This form has its closest affinities to opacella, and
differs mainly in size and in that the valvae are rounded and lack the

REVISION OF PEORIINAE AND ANERASTIINAE Ft

pointed apex of that species. The most obvious distinctions are those
of size, floridella having an alar expanse of 25 mm to 28 mm in the
specimens examined, contrasted with about 18 mm to 22 mm for
opacella, and maculation, the forewing veins all showing a prominent
white trace in the former species. In opacella the white trace is less
distinct and essentially absent on Az. The maxillary palpi are moder-
ately short in the Florida species, not nearly attaining the frons as in
opacella, and the frons itself is clothed with white-tipped brown scales
in the latter species rather than the solid brown scales of floridella.

Peoria johnstoni, new species
Fieurss 1, 78, 113, 151

DraGnosis.—Among the three other species of Peoria with similar
venation, johnstoni differs from approximella and luteicostella in
lacking a well-developed white band anterior to the cell, and from
bipartitella in having the forewings a rather uniform brownish orange.
Either the presence of two cornuti on the vesica of the aedeagus or
the absence of medial or lateral processes on the gnathos will de-
limit males of johnstoni from the above three species.

Description.—Frons conical, reddish brown; labial palpi with
basal segments white, second and third segments reddish brown
dorsally and on outer sides, lighter ventrally and on inner sides;
maxillary palpi small; antennae light brown, scape light pink an-
teriorly, male subserrate; occiput, patagia, and tegulae reddish
brown, vertex somewhat lighter.

Forewings brownish orange; Sc, radials, cubitals, M3, and Az
white traced, costa traced with narrow inconspicuous white line;
brownish orange on lower surface. Venation as in P. bipartitella.

Male genitalia with medial process of uncus bearing small ventral
bulge at apex. Gnathos weakly sclerotized, without apical or lateral
processes. Juxta U-shaped. Valvae with costa sparsely setose; sacculus
densely setose. Aedeagus with vesica bearing pair of ovate subserrate
cornuti.

Female genitalia with ovipositor moderately setose along caudal
margin. Posterior apophyses straight, base flat and shaped like
parallelogram with short side horizontal; anterior slightly curved,
tapering gradually to thickened base.

Ollia santaritella Dyar, 1904, p. 108.—Barnes and McDunnough, 1917, p. 149.—
MecDunnough, 1939, p. 36.

Diacnosis.—The forewings are white anterior to the cubitus, red
between the cubitus and the A, fold, and light pink posterior to the

anterior to cell, costal margin bordered with red near base; red
between cubitus and A, fold, bounded distally by M3; and Cuz; light
pink posterior to red line; underside with red showing through faint-
ly; 10 or 11 veins; Re» free from cell; M2;, stalked for about half its
length or completely fused, both conditions about equally common,
sometimes (rarely) differing on right and left wings of same specimen.
Hindwings with M; and Cu, stalked.

Male genitalia with gnathos bearing short apical digitate projection.
Juxta V-shaped. Valvae with costa terminating in a blunt tooth,
cucculus not projecting beyond costa; sacculus with fine hairs. Aedeag-

Ollia holoponerella Dyar, 1908, p. 117. — Barnes and McDunnough, 1917, p.
149. — McDunnough, 1939, p. 36.

Diaanosis.—The light buff forewing with its conspicuous white
band anterior to the cell delimits this species within Peoria. A similar
white band marks the forewings of approximella and luteicostella, but
in both of these species the forewings are marked with red and lack
vein Mp.

DescripTion.—Frons conical, brown; labial palpi with basal
segments white, second and third segments brown on outer sides,
light brown to white ventrally and on inner sides; maxillary palpi
small; antennae silver, male shaft serrate and fasciculate; occiput
behind eye, patagia, and tegulae light brown, vertex and dorsum of
occiput white; legs white, tarsi brown.

Forewings with white band anterior to cell, bordered anteriorly
near base with dark brown, posteriorly by black line; ground light
buff; veins traced with black scales. Hindwings light brown. Venation
as in gemmatella.

Male genitalia with gnathos bearing medial digitate projection.
Juxta V-shaped. Valvae with costa unarmed, bearing scattered setae;
sacculus with fine hairs, Aedeagus with vesica bearing single round
serrate cornutus.

Female genitalia with ovipositor slender, caudal margin rather
heavily setose, bare laterally, Apophyses straight, posterior hooked
upward and coming to point at base; anterior with thickened base.

Discussion.—This is the most common and widely distributed
member of the subfamily, the species being common from mid-June
to early August throughout the northeastern United States. Western
specimens tend to be larger and more uniform in maculation than
those from the eastern and central states.

abruptly behind with black, black blending into posterior wine red
area; outer fringe wine red to black. Hindwing light brown, darker
in apical area. Venation as in P. bipartitella.

Male genitalia with medial process of uncus bearing minute central
tooth, rarely several. Gnathos broadening posteriorly into a pair of
large flat anteriorly directed hooks. Juxta V-shaped. Vinculum with
dorsal margin flanged at apex. Valvae with costa terminating in
strong slender spine reaching or surpassing the blunt membranous

Anacostia, new genus

Type.—Anacostia tribulella, new species.
Diacnosis.—The male genitalia are similar to those of Peoria, but
differ mainly in the following ways: In Anacostia the spicate processes

38 U.S. NATIONAL MUSEUM BULLETIN 280

are three-branched rather than two-branched, the medial band of the
uncus has a central pentagonal process, and the juxta bears a pair of
lateral knobs, each with a small cluster of setae.

Description.—Labial palpi porrect, about 3% times as long as eye
diameter; maxillary palpi moderate, not reaching frons; male antennae
with basal segments of shaft fused, shaft serrate and fasciculate, female
unknown; ocelli well developed.

Forewing with 11 veins; R, from cell relatively near to Rey; Re
relatively long stalked with Rsis; Mo+3 stalked for about one-half
their length or less; Cu, from near Mo+3;. Hindwing with 7 veins;
Se and Rs stalked for about one-half their length; M; and Cu, stalked
for about one-third their length.

Male genitalia with medial band of uncus very broadly rounded,
bearing a well-developed, ventrally directed, apical, pentagonal
process; spicate processes three-branched. Gnathos broad, flat, thin,
broadened at base; sharp pointed apically, but without special process.
Juxta V-shaped, bearing pair of setose knobs. Vinculum subquadrate,
anterior corners well rounded. Valvae relatively slender; costa sparsely
setose, with small apical tooth at tip of valve; sacculus densely
pubescent. Aedeagus with vesica unarmed.

Female unknown.

Discussion.—The genus is apparently closely related to Peoria,
but differences in the male genitalia are too great to allow inclusion
of the one species in that genus.

Anacostia tribulella, new species
FiaursEs 25, 83, 118

Dracnosis.—This is the only known species in the genus.

Description.—Labial palpi with all segments dark brown to
black; antennae brown, shaft with tuft of black scales on basal seg-
ments; head and thorax black; legs black on outer sides, brown
on inner sides; abdomen dorsally brown, becoming golden brown
anteriorly, ventrally black.

Forewing ground dark brown to black; area anterior to cell white
sprinkled with black scales; discal spot, transverse anterior, transverse
posterior, and subterminal lines black, not conspicuous against
ground. Hindwing brown, darker toward apex; terminal line white,
brown bordered on both sides.

Arivaca, new genus

Typr.—Poujadia pimella Dyar, 1906.

Driaenosis.—Males of this genus may be recognized by the com-
bination of (a) the gnathos bearing a bulbous or padlike medial
process, and (b) each spicate process of the uncus having a short
posterior and a much longer anterior sharp-pointed spine (figs.
119-125).

DescriptTion.—Frons conical, one-half to three-quarter times as
long as eye diameter; labial palpi porrect; maxillary palpi very small;
tongue poorly developed; antennae with scape compressed, male
shaft with basal segments fused, female shaft filiform, scaled dorsally
and laterally, finely ciliate ventrally, somewhat compressed; eye
diameter about 0.2 mm greater in male than in female; ocelli normal.

Forewings with 10 or 11 veins; R, from well before upper outer
angle of cell; Rs,4 stalked; M, from the angle; M;,3 stalked or fused,
from lower outer angle; Cu, from just before the angle; Cu, from
well before the angle. Hindwings with 6 or 7 veins; Sc and Rs approxi-
mate or connate on basal half; M, from upper outer angle of cell;
M, absent; Ms,Cu: free, stalked, or fused, from lower outer angle;
Cu, from before the angle.

Male genitalia with spicate processes of uncus flat, each bearing
short sharp posterior and long tapering anterior thorns. Gnathos
arms straplike, bearing anteromedial projection; medial process
bulbous or padlike. Vinculum broadly rounded. Aedeagus flattened,
vesica bearing pair of cornuti.

Female genitalia with ductus bursae flattened, rather long, well
sclerotized. Bursa small, lightly sclerotized. Ductus seminalis from
posterior half of ductus bursae.

Discussion.—The seven species of Arivaca fall into four rather
distinct subunits herein distinguished as species groups rather than
as genera or subgenera. Because the genus is apparently best devel-
loped in the unstudied region south of the United States, it is possible
that intermediate forms exist between the species groups, and it is
felt best not to give the groups nomenclatural status.

to

Driacenosis.—This group may be distinguished by the male valvae,
in which the costa ends in a short triangular tooth well before the
rounded tip of the cucullus. A similar projecting membranous cucullus
exists in albicostella, but the costa terminates in a stout spine in that
species.

Description.—Frons light brown to brown; labial palpi with basal
segment white, second and third segments clothed with white-tipped
brown scales dorsally and on outer sides, white ventrally and on inner
sides; vertex light brown anteriorly, white posterior to antennae,
occiput, patagia, and tegulae brown laterally, lighter dorsally; legs
clothed with white-tipped brown scales on outer sides, white on inner
sides.

Forewing ground light orange brown, veins white traced and
bordered with brown, A; and A, traced for most of their length, A;
traced at base; 11 veins; Mo; stalked. Hindwing light brown, fringe
white; 7 veins; M; usually free from lower outer angle of cell.

Male genitalia with uncus moderately well sclerotized between
spicate processes. Juxta rounded, with caudal V-shaped notch. Valvae
with costa sparsely setose, apically bearing short triangular tooth;
cucullus with rounded membranous tip projecting well beyond costa;
sacculus with patch of stiff setae. Aedeagus with cornuti serrate,
small, subequal.

Female genitalia with base of posterior apophyses flat, shaped like
parallelogram. Bursa unarmed.

Discussion.—The two included species may be separated by the
condition of vein R., which is stalked with R344 in linella but free
in pimella, but this character is usually variable elsewhere in the sub-
family so that positive identification should rest with examination of
the male genitalia.

Discusston.—In many specimens the distal one-half of each spine
of the uncus ring is bent anteroventrally (fig. 127), and the anteriorly
directed spine of the gnathos is posterior (fig. 127a) in relation to that
of the type (fig. 1276). Specimens of both types have been collected
at the Archbold Biological Station and do not represent geographical
varieties. In view of the small differences between the two types, they
are held to be conspecific.

Subfamily Phycitinae Ragonot

The following seven genera which were previously placed in the
Anerastiinae and a new genus, Wakulla, established for Bandera
carneella, are transferred to the Phycitinae.

The relationships within the Phycitinae are clear for only a few of
the eight genera. Anerastia and Coenochroa show affinities with each
other but none with any particular group in the Phycitinae. Barberia is
closely related to Anderida, and Bandera to Anagasta. The other four
genera have typical phycitine genitalia, although their exact place-
ment within the subfamily is uncertain. Of these four, Ragonotia and
Martia are closely related and have typical phycitine wing maculation.

Diacnosis.—The genus may be easily recognized by the combina-
tion of a toothed protuberant frons and longitudinal wing pattern.
Martia has a somewhat similar frons, but the wing pattern is predom-
inantly transverse. The wing maculation of Anerastia is similar to
that of Coenochroa, and the frons is toothed, but not protuberant.
The bifid male uncus is unique to Coenochroa.

Derscription.—Frons with prominent anterior protuberance ter-
minating in dorsoposteriorly sloping closed rim of irregular teeth sur-
rounding central beak (figs. 44-47); labial palpi porrect or deflexed;
maxillary palpi rudimentary, naked, usually hidden by labials; tongue
reduced, usually hidden by palpi; antennae compressed, each segment
bearing pair of perpendicularly projecting cilia ventrally near distal
end, male shaft scaled dorsally, ventrally and laterally bearing dense
fine recurved cilia, female shaft scaled dorsally and laterally, ventrally
with fine sparse recurved cilia; ocelli small, covered with scales.

Diaanosis.—This is the only member of the genus in which the
central beak of the frons does not attain the rim. The genitalia are
identical to those of tlibella, a species which lacks the discal spot
and has a distinctive pale costa.

DescripTion.—Frons with protuberance cylindrical, ventrally
about as long as wide, rim slanting about 45°, teeth projecting for-
ward, central beak a very small cone not reaching rim, vesture light

brown dorsally, white ventrally; labial palpi deflexed, basal segments
white, second and third uniform light yellow, occasionally brown
dorsally; antennae light brown, finely ciliate; patagia, tegulae, vertex,
occiput, and legs varying light yellow to brown.

Forewing radius varying from about 8 mm to 12 mm, average of
9.5 mm; ground color light yellow to orange yellow; veins usually
traced with white, often sprinkled with black scales; dark discal spot at
lower outer angle of cell; vein Re usually first to leave stalked Rey.

Male genitalia with aedeagus slender, slightly thicker anteriorly,
vesica with a single slender conutus.

Female genitalia with ductus seminalis slender, not thickened
basally.

Discusston.—The degree of black scaling on the forewings is
quite variable and ranges from a very marked broad tracing of the
veins to an almost total absence of black scales. The type specimen of
californiella is very sparsely set with black scales and that of insper-
gella rather heavily so, thus it is not surprising that they were
regarded as representing separate species. Wing venation, frons, and
genitalia are essentially identical in the two holotypes.

Small specimens may easily be mistaken for bipunctella.

Discussion.—The original description of illibella lists two males
and one female from Texas. The disposition of the male types is not
known, and two female specimens from Texas bear Hulst’s ‘“Type”
label. Available evidence is insufficient to determine which, if either,
of these two females was included in the original series, and I have

REVISION OF PEORIINAE AND ANERASTIINAE 67

designated as lectotype the specimen in the American Museum of
Natural History. The remaining female is deposited in the U.S.
National Museum, full data being given above.

The specimens from Pecos, Tex. are atypical in that the frons beak
is unusually well developed and the rim is flared anteriorly so that
the teeth point somewhat anterolaterally. Most of the Pecos speci-
mens are only sparsely set with black scales on the forewings, but
otherwise are typical of the species.

Draenosis.—This is the only member of the genus having numer-
ous small cornuti on the vesica of the male rather than a single one.
The ductus seminalis of females is thickened where it leaves the
ductus bursa, not slender as in other species. Otherwise, specimens
could be confused with small examples of californiella, which has
similar wing venation and maculation, but the two species are largely
or wholly allopatric.

DescripTion.—Frons with protuberance cylindrical, ventrally
about as long as wide, rim slanting at about 45°, teeth projecting
forward, central beak conical with irregular tip even with end of rim,
vesture light brown to brown dorsally, white to light brown ventrally;
labial palpi usually porrect, basal segments white, second and third
brown dorsally and on outer sides, light brown ventrally; antennae as
in californiella; patagia and tegulae brown, vertex and occiput light
brown dorsally, occiput brown dorsolaterally, white below middle of
eye; legs brown on outer sides, white on inner sides.

Forewing radius averaging about 6.9 mm; cell, discocellular, radials,
medials, cubitals, and anal veins each traced with a broad white band
sprinkled with black scales; area anterior to cell varying yellow to
brown and sprinkled with black scales; ground color yellow to yellow
brown; prominent black discal spot at lower outer angle of cell; brown
on underside; vein R, first to branch from stalked R24. Hindwing
bordered with double brown line; fringe white; ground color light
brown, darker in apical area; Cu; and M; stalked for at least one-half
length, sometimes fused.

Male genitalia with vinculum V-shaped, pointed anteriorly.
Aedeagus club-shaped vesica bearing numerous small cornuti which
diminish in size anteriorly.

Female genitalia with ductus bursae rather short. Ductus seminalis
thickened basally.

Discusston.—The species has been poorly collected outside of
Florida, as is generally true for Coastal Plain groups, and is probably
more common there than the few scattered records indicate. It may
be sympatric with californiella in the Coastal Plain section of Texas.

Diacnosis.—The absence of ocelli and the presence of a tongue,
reduced but exposed between the palpi, serve to distinguish this
genus from the other North American Phycitinae.

REVISION OF PEORIINAE AND ANERASTIINAE 69

Description.—Frons conical; labial palpi porrect, outer sides of
second and third segments clothed with white-tipped brown scales,
basal segments clothed with broad white scales; maxillary palpi
cylindrical, almost reaching frons; tongue exposed between palpi;
antennae filiform, compressed, ciliate ventrally; ocelli absent; legs
brown to fuscous laterally, tarsi brown and speckled with white.

Forewings with a brown-speckled white band anterior to cell;
veins traced with white and margined on both sides with a sprinkling
of brown scales; 9 veins; R, from well before outer angle of cell; R,
from cell; Ri,s5 fused; M, from upper outer angle; M,,; fused and from
the angle; Cu, from before the angle; Cu, from well before the lower
outer angle of cell. Hindwing light brown above and below, slightly
darker toward apex; 7 veins; Sc and Rs long stalked; Cu, stalked with
fused M.,3; Cuz from well before the lower outer angle of cell.

Male genitalia with uncus broadly triangulate, slightly tapering,
with apex broadly rounded, laterally and dorsocaudally setose.
Gnathos arms terminating in an anterior ventral hook; apical process
a simple posteriorly directed hook. Juxta U-shaped, with small
lateral knobs. Vinculum stout. Valvae distally rounded; costa tubular,
slightly tapering distally. Vesica unarmed.

Female genitalia with ovipositor tapering distally, about as long as
basal width. Apophyses slender, well sclerotized; posterior about
five or six times as long as their basal separation; anterior about two
to four times as long as their basal separation. Ductus bursae long,
weakly sclerotized. Bursa small; with a group of three or four small
barlike signa near posterior end. Ductus seminalis threadlike; from
near or at posterior end of bursa near signa.

Discussion.—The genus shows affinities to a number of other
phycitine genera and is probably closest to Anagasta Heinrich. The
ereat preponderance of males in collections suggests that females
are far less readily attracted to light.

Draenosis.—The presence of a transverse posterior line of dots and
a transverse anterior dot on vein A, of the forewing, a truncate
vinculum, and an incomplete transtilla each by itself distinguish this
species from other members of the genus.

Description.—Frons about as long as diameter of eye, light brown;
vertex, occiput, tegula, and prothorax white to light brown dorsally,
gray brown laterally; abdomen light creamy brown dorsally, brown
ventrally.

Forewing yellow between veins; discal cell, area between cell and
vein A,, and area posterior to A, solid yellow; transverse posterior
variously developed as a row of dots on veins, best represented by a
dark spot near end of vein A,; a dark spot on vein A, halfway between
tp line and wing base; light brown to brown on underside.

Male genitalia with transtilla incomplete. Lateral knobs of juxta
well developed, setose. Vinculum rectangular, broadly truncate ante-
riorly. Aedeagus tapering posteriorly, subtruncate anteriorly. Eighth
abdominal segment of male bearing lateral hair tufts.

Female genitalia with ovipositor sparsely setose. Ductus bursae
broad.

label inscribed with “‘Co19,” probably intended to be “Colo” (Colo-
rado). Ragonot may have interpreted the inscription as an abbrevia-
tion for California since that state is given as the type locality. I
have seen no specimens of binotella from California although the species
is found in Washington and therefore might be expected to occur in
northern California.

Discussion.—The presumed habitat differences and the wide geo-
graphic separation between eastern and western populations indicate
that they may well represent distinct biological species, but the
absence of clear-cut morphological differences between them dictates
that better criteria must be found if a new species name is to be given
to the eastern population. Eastern specimens differ in having the frons,
vertex, occiput, tegula, and prothorax covered with brown scales.
The forewing ground color is reddish brown rather than yellow, and
the transverse posterior line of dots is usually better developed.

Diacnosis.—In the other members of this genus the discal cell
and the area between the cell and vein A: are scaled with solid yellow,
but in virginella these areas are pale yellow sprinkled with brown
scales. The male genitalia are identical with those of cupidinella, but
the eighth abdominal segment bears lateral hair tufts.

dirty white dorsally and light brown ventrally; tongue somewhat less
well developed than on other members of the genus; vertex, occiput,
and thorax light yellow brown dorsally, occiput and prothorax gray
brown laterally; abdomen varying light brown to brown.

Forewings with areas between veins pale yellowish white, variously
sprinkled with brown scales; fold of A, traced with brown scales;
brown beneath.

Male genitalia as in B. cupidinella. Kighth abdominal segment with
hair tufts similar to those of B. binotella, but with fewer scales and
therefore smaller.

Dyar, 1905. Monobasic.]

Draenosis.—The distinctive uncus, basally triangular and with a
narrow terminal portion, distinguishes the genus from all other New
World phycitines with similar wing venation.

Description.—Frons_ oblique; labial palpi upturned, slender;
maxillary palpi well developed, reaching frons; tongue exposed between
palpi; antennae filiform, compressed; ocelli small, appearing as dark-
ened spots.

Forewings with 9 veins; Re from near upper outer angle of cell;
R34 fused, separate from Re at base; M,; from angle; Mas fused,
from lower outer angle; Cu, from just before angle; Cuz from before
angle. Hindwing with 7 veins; Sc and Rs long stalked; M, from upper
outer angle of cell; M2.3; fused, short stalked with Cu,, from lower
outer angle; Cue from before the angle.

Male genitalia with uncus triangular on basal two-thirds, distal
third narrow, distal half heavily setose dorsally and laterally. Gnathos
arms terminating in anterior ventral hook; medial process a flattened
posteriorly directed hook, curved dorsally at tip. Transtilla incomplete,
a pair of flat plates about 3% times as long as wide. Juxta U-shaped,
arms sharp pointed. Vinculum truncate. Valvae with apex obliquely
rounded. Aedeagus straight, vesica unarmed.

Female genitalia with ovipositor tip broadly rounded. Apophyses
straight, broadened basally; posterior parallel, anterior slightly longer,
diverging. Ductus bursa narrow, leaving bursa about one-fifth from
posterior end. Ductus seminalis from posterior end of bursa. Bursa
well developed; signum a long narrow sclerotized infolding about one-
fourth from anterior end of bursa.

Discussion.—The male genitalia are quite similar to Heinrich’s
illustration of Anderida, but males of Barberia differ in the truncate
vinculum and lack of hair tufts on the eighth abdominal segment.
The two genera are less similar with respect to female genitalia and
wing venation.

Discussion.—There is uncertainty regarding the identity of the
type specimens of dotalis and saganella. In the American Museum of
Natural History is a series of two females and one male, all labeled
Phoenix, Ariz., June, ‘‘Anerastia dotalis Type Hulst’”’ (Hulst’s hand-
writing); the male specimen also bears a slide preparation label,
genitalia slide No. 3216, Carl Heinrich, June 14, 1946. One of the
females has the tip of its abdomen broken off. A female specimen
in the U.S. National Museum also bears Hulst’s type label and the
data Phoenix, Ariz., May. In his original description of dotalis,
Hulst reported only that he had one female from Arizona. In the
absence of any evidence indicating which specimen Hulst based
his original description upon, I have chosen as the lectotype the more
nearly intact of the two female specimens in the type series of the
American Museum of Natural History. The other three ‘‘types” are
thus presumed to be pseudotypes.

REVISION OF PEORIINAE AND ANERASTIINAE 83

In describing saganella, Hulst indicated clearly that his new species
was very different from dotalis and stated that the two were “hardly
congeneric.”’ Hulst’s type of saganella, on the other hand, is ob-
viously a specimen of dotalis, thus the validity of the type and the
accuracy of the description are open to question.

Driaenosis.—The genus is easily recognized by the combination
of protuberant frons and prominent transverse lines on the forewings.

Description.—Frons produced into obliquely truncate cone,
its rim incised ventrally, produced and finely serrate laterally, deeply
incised dorsally forming shallow trough rimmed with fine teeth; labial
palpi porrect or somewhat decurved, about 3% times eye length in
male, and about four times in female; maxillary palpi cylindrical, al-
most reaching frons; tongue rudimentary; antennae subserrate in male,
each segment with two ventral bands of cilia, cilia about 2% times as
long as segment width, filiform in female, cilia not in bands, shorter
than segment width; ocelli small, conical.

Forewings with 11 veins; R, free from cell near R34; Ray, stalked,
from upper outer angle of cell; M, arising about one-third from top
of cell; M.,3 short stalked or from point at lower outer angle of cell;
Cu, from just before the angle. Hindwing with 7 veins; Sc and Rs
approximate for short distance beyond cell; M, from upper outer
angle of cell; M.,3 fused, short stalked with Cu,, from lower outer
angle.

Male genitalia with uncus triangular, rounded apically, finely ciliate
dorsally and laterally. Gnathos with medial process simple, extending
caudad, tip sharp, curving dorsad. Transtilla a pair of weakly sclero-
tized irregular plates. Juxta scoop-shaped. Vinculum broader than
long. Costa tubular on basal four-fifths, tapering. Aedeagus slender,
vesica unarmed.

Female genitalia with ovipositor rather densely setose, tip broadly
rounded. Posterior apophyses curved posteroventrally on posterior
fourth; anterior straight, directed anteroventrally at angle of about
45° to posterior. Ductus bursae short. Bursa unarmed. Ductus semi-
nalis leaving bursa about one-fourth distance from posterior end.

each tibial segment white banded.

Forewings with transverse anterior, transverse posterior, discal
spot, area between Cu, and Ag, and basal area posterior to A, golden
yellow; transverse anterior interrupted in cell by dark brown area
which gradually narrows and extends posteriorly to A, as a wedge
between the ta line and the prominent narrow white line bordering it
distally. Transverse anterior bordered inside by white anterior to cubi-
tus, by brown band posterior to cell, band extending to costa at wing
base; wing anterior to cell and between transverse lines white with
sprinkling of brown scales; area surrounding discal spot brown, ex-
tending posteriorly to Cuy, often enclosing an irregular white area at
lower outer angle of cell; terminal line dark brown, bordered internally

Monobasic. References as given for the genus.]

Description.—The original descriptions of the genus and species
are as follows:

Navasota, gen. nov.—Antennae thick, pubescent, a very flattened pad of
scales in sinus. Palpi oblique, ascending, 3rd joint horizontal. Fore-wings with
ten veins, 10 from stem of 8 and 9, 4 and 5 stemmed, 3 wanting. Hind wings
with seven veins, 8 stalked, 4 and 5 on long stem, 3 wanting, 2 before angle.

86. N. hebetella.—16 mill.—Fore-wings reddish-ochreous, paler on inner
margin. Costa with a broad whitish streak not reaching the apex and finely
streaked with reddish-ochreous. Hind-wings pale yellowish.

Typr.—In the Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle.

TypE pata.—A specimen label gives: ‘‘ex. coll. Bellfr. coll. Riley.”

Discussion.—Navasota probably belongs in the Peoriinae, but its
exact placement is uncertain as the abdomen of the type is lost. The
species may belong to Peoria, but apparently is not conspecific with
any of the 13 species listed in that genus. No type locality is given
in the original description, but Hampson (in Ragonot, 1901) in a
probable reference to the type reports: ‘Texas. Un a’, octobre.
Coll. Ragonot.” All of Belfrage’s southwestern material was collected
in Texas.

Dunnough, 1939, p. 35. — Rindge, 1955, p. 168. [Monobasic.]

Description.—The original descriptions of the genus and species
are as follows:

Uinta, n. gen.

Fore wings 9 veins: 4 and 9 wanting, 3 and 5 separate; hind wings 7 veins;
3 and 5 separate, 2 far from angle, 7 and 8 separate to base; labial palpi hori-
zontal, heavy, long; maxillary palpi strong, heavily scaled on end; antennae
of o bent above base, pubescent; ocelli present; tongue wanting; legs shorter
and more heavy than usual. Type: oreadella, Hulst.

U. oreadella, n. sp.

Palpi fuscous gray, as is also the head; thorax blackish gray; abdomen
blackish gray, becoming fuscous and yellowish anally, each segment except
basal edged narrowly with gray; fore wings dark fuscous, darker at base;
basal line not evident; outer line broad, blackish, a marginal broad line also
blackish; at base of center of middle field a lengthened black point; hind wings

fuscous, shining, margin darker; beneath even fuscous on all wings, margins
darker.—Colorado.”’

Typr.—In the American Museum of Natural History.

TypEz pata.—Texas, June; G. D. Hulst collection, Rutgers.

Discussion.—The species probably belongs to the Crambinae as
Hulst (1890) later indicated, but cannot be placed to subfamily with
certainty as the hindwings and abdomen have been lost. The locality
given on the specimen (Texas) and that published in that original
description (Colorado) do not agree.

Tolima cincaidella Dyar
FIGURE 36

Tolima cincaidella Dyar, 1904, pp. 115-116. — Barnes and McDunnough, 1917,
p. 149. — McDunnough, 1939, p. 35.

Derscrirtion.—The original description of the species is as follows:

Fore wings with 11 veins, 2 well before angle of cell, 3 before angle, 4 and 5
very shortly stalked, 8 and 9 stalked, 10 connate with the base of the stalk,
11 from the cell. Hind wings with 7 veins, 2 from the angle of the cell, 3 and 4
long stalked, 5 absent, 8 distinct. Tongue moderate, apparently about twice
the length of the head; palpi very long, porrect and drooping; antennae simple,
lengthily ciliate.

Pale ocherous whitish, lines paler, obscure, defined by dusky edgings toward
the median space. Inner line produced a little on costa, preceded by a very
faint, russet patch on the inner margin. Discal dots blackish, separate. Outer
line drawn inward subcostally, else even, a slight dentation indicated in the
dusky border. The wing is all very pallid. Hind wing whitish, translucent.
Expanse 27 mm.

Three specimens, all with the abdomens broken, but apparently males,
Rock Spring, Wyoming (T. Kincaid).

Type: No. 7934, U.S. National Museum.

Typr.—In the U.S. National Museum.

Typre pata.—No locality given on specimens, USNM 7934; printed
tag bears number ‘37049.”’ The three specimens bear identical labels.

Discussion.—The species does not belong in the Peoriinae, but
otherwise placement to subfamily is uncertain.

Statina gaudiella Hulst

Statina gaudiella Hulst, 1890, pp. 216-217. — Smith, 1891, p. 85. — Ragonot,
1901, pp. 415-416. — Hulst, 1902, p. 440. — Dyar, 1904c, p. 228. — Barnes
and McDunnough, 1917, p. 150. — Hampson, 1918, p. 60. — McDunnough,
1939, p. 36. — Rindge, 1955, p. 163.

Derscrietion.—The original description of the species is as follows:

2. S. gaudiella n.sp.—Expands 13 mm. Palpi and antennae ochreous fuscous;
abdomen ochreous. Fore wings squamose; ground color ochreous, with a faint
violet fuscous tinge, this sprinkled with lengthened black scales, much more

REVISION OF PEORIINAE AND ANERASTIINAE 89

thickly about basal line and within outer line forming indeterminate blackish

bands; lines indistinct, indeterminate, not evident except by the blackish

scaling; costa on outer field darker, with black scales; hind wings yellowish
fuscous, darker on veins.
Differs from typical Statina in that cells of both wings are very short.

Typr.—tIn the American Museum of Natural History.

Typr pata.—Central Texas, Blanco County, September, collection
G. D: Hulst.

Discussion.—The holotype consists of meso- and metathorax, the
right pair of wings, and the left hindwing. On the basis of wing
venation gaudiella probably belongs in the Peoriinae, but exact
placement is impossible owing to the poor condition of the holotype.

Ollia parvella Dyar

McDunnough, 1939, p. 36. — Kimball, 1965, p. 250.

DescripTion.—The original description of the species is as follows:

Costal half of fore wing white with slight darker lines on the veing toward
apex. Inner half pale ocherous, shading to gray next to white part. Hind wing
whitish. Expanse, 12 mm.

Six 9, Brownsville, Tex., May 31 to June 9, 1904 (H. S. Barber).

Typr.—In the U.S. National Museum.

Type pata.—Holotype: Texas, Brownsville, female, June 3?, 1904;
H. S. Barber; USNM 9103; female genitalia slide No. 10, Carl Hein-
rich, Dec. 20, 1932.

Discussion.—In the absence of male specimens placement is
uncertain. The species probably belongs in the Phycitinae and may
require a new genus when males can be examined. Ollia is a synonym
of Peoria.

Altoona ardiferella Hulst, Aurora nigromaculella Hulst, and Parramatta
placidella Barnes and McDunnough

These three names belong in the Phycitinae and should probably
be referred to Laetilia Ragonot, but placement within the subfamily
should await a thorough study of Laetilia and allied genera.

Explanation of Figures

The figures have not been reproduced to any fixed scale, and in
general smaller specimens are presented in greater enlargement than
larger ones,

Components of the male genitalia are enlarged to the same degree
for each species unless otherwise indicated. Sketches of the aedeagus,
genathos, or transtilla have been added in addition to or in place of
photographs where these did not render the structures with sufficient
clarity. Male genitalia of Coenochroa, Martia, Ragonotia, and all of
the Peoriinae have been dissected, opened, and flattened as described
on page 3.

Female genitalia of the Peoriinae are illustrated in lateral view,
those of phycitine specimens in dorsal view.
